Directions

Step 1

Chop the broccoli florets into small, bite-sized pieces.

In a medium bowl, crack the eggs and add the milk, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until well combined.

Step 4

Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.

Step 5

Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until fragrant. Be careful not to let it burn.

Step 7

Pour the egg mixture into the skillet with the cooked broccoli and garlic.

Step 8

Let the eggs cook undisturbed for about 30 seconds, then gently stir and fold the mixture with a spatula to create soft curds.
